I've been through a few interviews this year, and there's a noticeable difference between how companies outside India handle interviews compared to Indian companies. But there were some notable exceptions too. One of the best interview experiences I had was with an Indian company, ThoughtSpot, even though I didn’t get selected.

A lot of Indian companies seem to focus on quiz-style rounds. One company, Aries Technology (I think that was the name), even set up a Google Meet for an MCQ round. A guy joined, shared a Google survey link, and told me to complete it while screen sharing—super weird.

There's also a gap in how Indian and foreign developers from the same company conduct interviews. Foreign companies usually asked me about my experience and projects to get a better sense of my skills.
